Description
Green aquarium plant with long twisted leaves.
This easy plant gives gets many runners. After a while a group of this
plants get so thick that it has to be thinned out. This so it won't suffocate
itself.
My experiences
The leaves of this plant are now less twisted than when I bought
the plant. Especially the older leaves lose the twist in the leaves. This plant is also sensitive for the medicine 'unicel' of HS
(which is described on the medicine page) is my experience.
| Place and lighting in my aquarium |
 This
plant stands in the left-back of my aquarium. The lighting I have used for
this plant has varied between 0.42 Watt/liter standard TL lighting (2*18
Watt) till 0.63 Watt/liter standard TL lighting (3*18 Watt). |
